As all of you MLB fans know, Alex Rodriguez made history last night in a game between his Yankees and the Tampa Bay Rays by marking the first use of instant replay in the MLB.

The call was regarding a home run Rodriguez hit at the end of the game to see whether it was fair or foul. The call only took about three minutes, and maybe the NFL can learn from that, so good job on their part.

No matter how you feel about A-Rod, he does know how to make history. Too bad for the Yankees it is not always the kind they want—like a World Series Championship.
